Ascom pointer error in Starry Night

Hi I've just started using Ascom to control my scope mount, everything's working just fine except one thing - the red circle pointer that tells you where the scope is pointing, when using Ascom in Starry Night, is not in the correct position.  So I select my target and slew to it, target centred on camera screen so the scope direction is all good.  But when I look in Starry Night the red circle is some way off where it should be.  I've tried synching on target etc. but nothing seems to correct the error.  Any suggestions please, many thanks.

This type of error comes up on the forum from time to time.  Fairly recent example with suggestions for solutions here:

...basic things to check include time and location settings on all machines involved.

Good luck, and let us all know what you find (or if you need more help.)

Ok thanks alot, just to be clear all my slews are very accurate.  The only thing that is out is the red circle on the starry night screen should be in a different position.  But I will check all the basic time settings etc. anyway.
